The NAMA Registry is a publicly available online platform operated by the UNFCCC
Secretariat. Its purpose is to increase opportunities for implementation of and recognition for
Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMAs) in developing countries.

The registry allows developing countries to record information for all NAMAs seeking
support for development or implementation, whether they are smaller individual
projects or larger national initiatives by sector. Parties are also encouraged to enter information
for NAMAs that they have implemented without external support in order to be recognized for their
mitigation efforts.

Another essential purpose of the registry is to facilitate Financial, Capacity-Building, and
Technology support for NAMAs by providing Annex I Parties and Organisations
a mechanism to publicly announce their available resources.

NAMA Developers, NAMA Approvers, and Support Editors can submit
information to the NAMA Registry with one of the following special access rights:

1.) NAMA Developers can Create, Edit, Update, and Delete their own NAMA entries as
well as Submit them for approval. Please contact your National Focal Point or National NAMA

Background

The Conference of Parties (COP), at its sixteenth session, decided to set up a registry to record
nationally appropriate mitigation actions (NAMAs) seeking international support, to facilitate the
matching of finance, technology and capacity-building support with these actions, and to recognize
other NAMAs.

The NAMA registry has been developed in accordance with decisions 1/CP.16, paragraph 53, and 2/CP.17,
paragraph 45. Accordingly participation is voluntary and only information that has been specifically
requested for recording in the NAMA registry is found in this platform.

The NAMA registry has not been designed to perform functions of measurement, reporting and
verification of mitigation actions and support. The Conference of Parties has agreed on other
mechanisms for that purpose pursuant to decisions 1/CP.16 and 2/CP.17.
